[@ricardowirrer2512]

Hello from Austria 🎉 it was so nice hosting you and be part of the trip 👍 BR Ricardo

[@PursuingMountains]

Aww so good to hear from you Ricardo! Thank you so much again! Silveretta pass was gorgeous 😍

[@solway17carlisle]

Oh that was epic - I crossed the Alps by bike a few years back and also couldn’t avoid the busy roads - brought back so many memories. Happy NewYear - you are both doing really well 😊

[@PursuingMountains]

Aww thank you so much! That is so awesome that you crossed the alps! Where did you start and end?

[@michaelvikhman7926]

Dang that was very intense. I has anxiety watching you guys from comfort of my bed, can only imagine what you where feeling. But still worth every mile of your trip!

[@PursuingMountains]

Totally worth the struggles! :)

[@sander3425]

Jeeejj🎉🎉 on the last day of the year, watching another great video! Thanks and have a wonderfull 2024!!🔥🎆🧨

[@PursuingMountains]

Thank you! Happy New Year 🎊🥳

[@2wheelsrbest327]

Hi still following you and I am glad you've reached that hotel given how dangerous those tunnels looked. This adventure so far hasn't been easy but given your positivity you've overcome the problems you have had. I am just hoping you can now buy a tent at a reasonable price. Happy New Year to you both. Stay safe.

[@PursuingMountains]

Thank you! Happy New Year to you too! 🎊🥳

[@jezzag3866]

Happy New Year! Can't wait for the next episode, so much better than anything on TV 👍

[@PursuingMountains]

See that’s so kind 🥰Thank you and Happy New Year to you too! 🥳🎊

[@Scor-ah]

Wow what a day, I think I would have just slept in my sleepng bag on the side of the road...lol

[@PursuingMountains]

😂🤣 that probably would have been safer

[@frankk6262]

Happy New Year! So glad you survived those horrific roads and tunnels. Take Care out there. Good Luck.

[@PursuingMountains]

Thanks! I wish I could say that was the worst of it, but it wasn’t

[@leapintothewild]

Yay, another leg of your adventure! Had to look up marmots because I thought they were groundhogs. Evidently a bit different but still roly poly cute! Hope you guys had a great Christmas, and Hapoy New Year 🎉 (goodness, so glad you made it through that scary highway situation okay 😬)

[@PursuingMountains]

Thank you! That was such a scary section😬 We hope you have a Happy New Year too! 🎊🥳

[@kizzmitten1]

Thanks for showing the brutal portions. I had a nasty time in Ireland 2 years ago. Your misery made me feel better about that bad time.Ha ha. Glad you guys survived! Keep rollin!

[@PursuingMountains]

Thank you! So glad you enjoy seeing the brutal parts too! What happened in Ireland? I bet that would be an epic place to bikepack!

[@Naufrago_Noroeste]

Those paths looked awesome. Those narrows highways.....ugggg.

[@PursuingMountains]

Right?! When the bike paths were there it was amazing 🙌🏼

[@NoCarNancy]

So beautiful and i bet No wild predators

[@PursuingMountains]

[@NoCarNancy]

@@PursuingMountains saw that. Yikes but cool I'm into those episodes now 😀

[@enjoypladecorrals]

As a Dutch national I recommend you pronounce Gouda cheese like Cow Da. The guttural G you can leave for an advanced class😂

[@stefanomigliuolo3468]

Wow…

[@Andika9871]

Very nice video! Congrats🎉! Do you have the route where you guys have been?

[@PursuingMountains]

Thanks! You can find the tracks on our website here: pursuingmountains.com/index.php/2024/04/28/bikepacking-across-europe-guide-from-london-to-istanbul/

[@elham2393]

as long as the video is up you guys didnt die haha....

[@PursuingMountains]

😂yep! We survived 🙌🏼

[@zeez4178]

Did you go over Arlberg pass ?

[@jodyssey9921]

I really think countries should invest in safe infrastructure for bicycle tourists. It's becoming more popular every year and it would happen even faster if it was safer. Sure it can cost a lot of money in some places to put in a bike lane or trail but unlike roads they don't require much maintenance. Bike tourists eat a lot, we stay in hotels, we go to tourist sites and even buy souvenirs if they aren't too heavy.😂 Throw us a bone, it's an investment.

[@PursuingMountains]

100% we helped local economies A LOT with our eating consumption alone 😅

[@zeez4178]

Did you mean Alm not "Alp" for livestock to graze during sommer months ?

[@byron2571]

How do you find these routes?

[@PursuingMountains]

I used a couple of apps and websites. Primarily Komoot and cycle.travel

[@byron2571]

Thanks! Just got the kamoot app

[@randallgd]

How come no tent?

[@PursuingMountains]

It got destroyed in a storm a few days before

[@randallgd]

Ahh makes sense. Happy Trails!@@PursuingMountains
